GMX 2013: Speaker Series begins with Nashville Mayor Karl Dean

The Saturday Speaker Series is a presentation of professionals and experts in various trades, sharing their ideas, stories, and research to an eager audience ready to take what they learn out into the world. Through this series, the speakers are given 15 minutes or less and challenged to inspire, awe, and educate while incorporating a predetermined theme using their voice, a projector, props, instruments, or whatever means necessary.

This year’s speaker series theme: COMMUNITY

Mayor Dean’s priorities as mayor are improving schools, making neighborhoods safer, and bringing more and better jobs to Nashville which align perfectly with this year’s community theme. He also works to sustain and improve Nashville’s high quality of life through numerous initiatives that promote health, sustainability, and volunteerism.

The Saturday Speaker Series is on November 2, 11am-2pm, during this year’s GMX event. If you haven’t pre-registered for GMX yet, you can still pay at the door during the event. At-door prices are $25 for single day and $45 for the full weekend.

What is GMX?
Geek: a person who has excessive enthusiasm for and some expertise about a specialized subject or activity.
Media: the means of communication, as radio and television, newspapers, and magazines, that reach or influence people widely.
Expo: a large-scale public exhibition or show.
The Geek Media Expo (“GMX”) is an annual exposition and social conference relating primarily to the popular arts, sciences, technology, engineering, mathematics, and relevant cultural/lifestyle themes, presented as an educational and multi-media entertainment showcase. The event serves as a major revenue driver for the ArtsCubed organization.

GMX’s growth has been explosive, setting the stage for GMX to become Tennessee’s largest celebration of geekdom.

GMX is presented by ArtsCubed, a Nashville-based not-for-profit corporation. The mission of ArtsCubed is to advance popular visual, performing and literary arts – along with related cultural experiences central to the lives of the community – through events, outreach, education and associated initiatives. ArtsCubed also presents GMX’s sister event MTAC – Middle Tennessee Anime Convention. ArtsCubed is operated entirely by a volunteer staff.
